Supporting
Well-being
Keeping fit over 50 can be a challenge at the best of times, and even more so with lockdown and social distancing restrictions. Find out some easy tips and tricks to stay in shape at home.
Promoting physical health
The best way you can support the NHS is to stay healthy! For over-70s and those with underlying health conditions, this still means staying home as much as possible. If you need groceries, prescriptions, or other supplies, there are people who can deliver to you. Find out how we can help.
Exploring Creativity
Pursuing creative hobbies is a great way to keep your brain active and reduce boredom while staying at home. We have some ideas for easy projects that you can tackle with supplies you may already have.
